A couple of months ago, we reported that one of the original Batmobiles from the Adam West Batman TV series would be going up for auction. THR is reporting that the vehicle was sold on Saturday for $4.6 million dollars. The winning bidder, a businessman and car collector from Arizona, jokingly said he plans to tear down a wall in his home and display the car in his living room. The price for the vehicle is said to match that of the Aston Martin DB5 that Sean Connery drove in Goldfinger.

In late 1965, 20th Century Fox Television and William Dozier’s Greenway Productions contacted vehicle customzier George Barris and asked him to produce a Batmobile for the upcoming TV series. With only 15 days and $15,000 budget to build a Batmobile, Barris decided to transform the Lincoln Futura concept car into what is now widely recognized as the original and iconic crime-fighting vehicle.
